Not one moment could pass without Thomas hearing the unforgettable voice of Rane. This time he mocked Thomas for his attitude towards the Galactic Committee and that he actually made an effort to follow them, and of course Rane wasn't going to follow them like the psychopathic killing machine he was. Thomas saw that Rane by now had walked past them and didn't look at him, but nonetheless he gave him that killing stare with his one eye, thinking of all the times Thomas had saved his life instead of leaving him for death. And it was because of those damn regulations Rane made fun of that he was still alive. That, and that Thomas wasn't the cold-blooded murderer Rane was. Quite literately.

"Bealin' caffler..."

Thomas turned back to Val who must have wondered what on Earth was going on between Thomas as Rane, as if she wasn't nervous enough as it was. "You're welcome. And if you haven't met him already, that big lizard was Rane, insane and without a heart, be careful around him. He might be good in a fight and save your life, but he's still a nutter." Thomas said to Val as they walked behind Rane and Darius. Shortly after, they entered the docking bay, where they could see the shuttle that would bring the ground-team down, and Ace and Wrenchie making the recommended modifications to the shuttle. "Unlike you Rane, I can walk and talk simultaneously, and still notice that spot of dirt on your arse."
